Municipal Potable Water Storage Tanks 

CST’s AQUASTORE® tanks with VITRIUM™ glass-fused-to-steel (enamel) coating offer the lowest total life cycle costs. The glass coating on the tank panels never needs recoating during the entire life of the tank, saving tank owners money.  This solution has quickly become the preferred choice in municipal water storage.

CST’s TecTank™ (formerly Columbian Steel Tank Company™, Peabody TecTank and Columbian TecTank®) tanks offer the durability of factory-coated and cured epoxy coatings using our proprietary OptiBond™ process offer a low upfront cost.  Both glass and epoxy coating options are NSF approved.

CST’s in-house professional engineering teams and ISO 9001:2015 Certified manufacturing process allow CST covers to be custom designed to meet each customer’s specific needs.  This includes ground storage tanks in excess of 6 million gallons, composite elevated tanks greater than 2 million gallons, silos with heights exceeding 100 feet and aluminum domes and covers spanning greater than 200 feet.  CST also supplies smaller tanks and other type covers that can be manufactured and constructed safely and quickly.

CST also offers galvanized tanks that are NSF approved. CST’s Galvanized tanks are a cost effective way of storing water when other types of tanks are not practical.

• AQUASTORE®- Aquastore glass-fused-to-steel tanks are the most recommended water tank in rural water districts where overall cost, dependability and water quality are important attributes of water storage tanks.  Larger tanks for urban use are also popular.

• TecTank- TecTank factory coated epoxy tanks are the premier epoxy tanks for municipal and industrial water applications where quality is important but upfront cost plays a more important factor in tank section.

• Galvanized Tanks- CST’s galvanized bolted tanks fill an important niche in the overall water storage tank selection portfolio providing very low upfront cost options when long-term durability and environmental degradation are less important factors.

• Aluminum Domes- CST Cover’s formerly Temcor and Conservatek aluminum geodesic domes are the world’s leading domes for potable water storage tanks of all types.  They are precision manufactured, easily assembled and relatively maintenance free.

• Steel Covers and Roofs- CST’s coated steel and glass-fused-to-steel tank covers offer alternatives to aluminum domes for smaller diameter tanks.
